:01:18. > :01:24.With a pacemaker there is a lot of things you can do,

:01:25. > :01:26.and there are some things you are better off not doing.

:01:27. > :01:30.The aim is to try to encour`ge them to do the things they can do

:03:49. > :04:03.Well, the weather was a nice gift for us today!

:04:04. > :04:04.Here's the forecast with Holly Green.

:04:05. > :04:10.Today brought sunshine, tonight brings mist and fog.

:04:11. > :04:13.So underneath those clear spells and light winds our air is going

:04:14. > :04:19.to stagnate which will cause the mist and fog to form.

:04:20. > :04:26.Mostly dry through tonight, possibly the odd isolated shower and

:04:27. > :04:32.We will see greater visibilhty for the beginning of tomorrow,

:04:33. > :04:36.As the day wears on, things should improve.

:04:37. > :04:39.Some sunny spells coming through, but also the risk of a few showers.

:04:40. > :04:41.They should be isolated, pretty hit and miss, but if you

:04:42. > :04:46.Still decent temperatures where we do get get some sunshine.

:04:47. > :04:49.Into the working week, available cloud, some bright spells btt also

:04:50. > :04:54.The M5 northbound is closed overnight between Junctions 11A

:04:55. > :04:57.It'll reopen tomorrow morning at six.

:04:58. > :05:03.Join us again tomorrow from 6:2 am. Good night.

:05:04. > :05:06.night. -- that is it from the BBC London weekend team, have a very

:05:07. > :05:14.good night. This weekend was one to remember not

:05:15. > :05:18.just because of the Ryder Cup but because of the weather, temperatures

:05:19. > :05:21.more akin to the middle of summer, hardly a cloud in the sky across

:05:22. > :05:25.England and Wales, temperatures peaked in the south-east at 25

:05:26. > :05:30.degrees. Way above the average for the time of year. Clout to the north

:05:31. > :05:33.and still a decaying weather front, producing a few bits and pieces of

:05:34. > :05:38.rain through the night, some cloud around. Where we get breaks, we

:05:39. > :05:42.could see further spells of mist and fog and the potential for a few

:05:43. > :05:45.sharp showers to develop moving up through the Channel coast. There is

:05:46. > :05:49.a level of uncertainty about family money showers we are likely to see

:05:50. > :05:53.and where they will crop up. I suspect that by the middle of the

:05:54. > :05:59.afternoon, some places will escape them and stay dry. Not as warm as

:06:00. > :06:02.today. If you catch a shower, particularly across north-west Wales

:06:03. > :06:07.and England, it could be heavy and possibly thundery. Northern England,

:06:08. > :06:11.Northern Ireland and Scotland, you do full day in prospect, quite

:06:12. > :06:14.quiet, largely dry with sunny spells coming through. Temperatures

:06:15. > :06:17.responding, 15 to 18 degrees.
